Yes, of course: =========================================== # grep -r ath0 /etc /etc/conf.d/net:#wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi" # For Atheros based cards /etc/conf.d/net:#wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi" /etc/conf.d/wireless.example:# eth0, eth1, wlan0, ath0 - you get the idea. If you're not sure /etc/conf.d/wireless.example:# Say that your wireless interface is ath0 - the line /etc/conf.d/wireless.example:# #essid_ath0="any" /etc/conf.d/net.example:#wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi" # For Atheros based cards /etc/conf.d/net.eth0:#wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi" # For Atheros based cards /etc/conf.d/net.eth0:#wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi" =========================================== It's all commented out. However, I found this: ls -la /var/run/wpa_supplicant/ath0 srwxrwx--- 1 root users 0 Jun 1 11:25 /var/run/wpa_supplicant/ath0 Shall I get rid of it? -- Regards, Mick
